I think that's the point. They can get your faceid or fingerprints by force, but login pin and passwords only by torture or threats. So they might be willing to go the length, but who knows.

Everybody knows. Do not resist, that's how people die or worse.

I wouldn't resist giving up my stuff, you're right, not worth it. But there's no way I'm ever letting anyone take me to a 2nd location.

Plus, those dudes aren't wearing masks, so they're either really stupid, crazy, or didn't plan on leaving that guy as a witness. Not a good sign.

What's worse than being dead from this situation

I use faceid for entry into apps and such, but for my phone itself, there's a code. It was fairly obvious early on that for basic phone security, unlocking the phone with faceid is sketchy. Being a casual pot smoker my focus was always on preventing police access to my phone without my permission, never thought about someone trying to force me to open it otherwise. Though, really, what's the difference between police trying to get into your phone vs. an armed robber? Nothing at all.

I have an idea. An app that doesn't let you transfer cash if it detects your heart rate to be over 110bpm.

Secure yourself against robbers and panic buys!

"Every minute you do not tell us your PIN, I cut off a finger."

"Mine or yours?"

"Yours"

"Damn"

Kidnapping, sure. But we can't threaten the guy, that's too far.
